Patrick Wardle, a security researcher, has examined Turtle, a brandnew macOS malware. The virus was created initially for Windows and subsequently migrated to macOS. Twentyfour antimalware programs on VirusTotal classified Turtle as harmful despite not being a particularly complex threat. The virus loads files into memory, renames them, encrypts them using AES in CTR mode, and then replaces the original data in the files with the encrypted version. Filenames are prefixed with "TURTLERANSv0." The virus on macOS indicates that the platform is becoming a more popular target for ransomware writers. Read More..

Challenges in EU as Lawmakers Struggle to Agree on Generative AI Regulation in AI Act

Legislators in the European Union need help reaching a consensus on how to govern generative AI, which includes ChatGPT systems, as part of the planne

Legislators in the European Union need help reaching a consensus on how to govern generative AI, which includes ChatGPT systems, as part of the planned AI Act. Foundation models—like those created by Microsoftbacked OpenAI—represent a significant obstacle in the talks. Some experts in France, Germany, and Italy support letting generative AI model developers selfregulate. In contrast, others suggest a tiered system for controlling foundation models depending on user numbers. The AI Act attempts to control artificial intelligence in the EU. This might be in jeopardy due to disagreements on these and other issues. The last negotiations are set for December 6, and should an agreement not be reached, the act could be shelved because of a deadline for European parliamentary elections next year. Read More..
